--- Comment #6 from wikif...@gmail.com ---
It looks as if moved pages aren't shown in the newpages feed anymore at all,
not at the creation date and not at the move date. I tried this on en.wikipedia
with [[Mathur, Krishnagiri]], which I couldn't find in it. 

The absence of new pages from the new pages feed is a very old and very
annoying bug, which has been exploited by paid editors and other problematic
editors (see the en-wiki Signpost from 9 october). Pages which get moved from
another mainspace to the main namespace should be listed as "new pages" on the
date of the move. This is not a "small benefit", this is currently a major
loophole which gets exploited by malicious editors to avoid scrutiny.
